Objects are a unique, blockchain-powered digital representation of a service or product sold by Sellers on PayDocker. They serve as a secure and exchangeable asset representing your sales.
Objects are typically sent to a customer along with the corresponding invoice documentation to facilitate the secure exchange and payment process.
What you can do here
How to configure
The process is simple: create an Object, add the necessary details, attach accounting documents, and send it to your customer for billing.
1. Click Sales (1), then select Object (2) in the left panel.
2. On the Sales Objects page, click + Object.
3. On the top half of the Objects Generator pop-up, select your buyer (1), the currency of the invoice (2) and the invoice amount (3).
4. In the center, the estimated fee (1) will be displayed, and the amount you will receive (2) from this Object Exchange after deducting the fee will be shown.
5. Fee payment arrangement (Under "Fee Paid by" (3) dropdown)
if you already have a pre-existing smart contract setup for the fee structure, this selection will be configured in advance.
- If you don't have a smart contract setup, you will be required to manually configure this setup.
6. Enter the Invoice reference number and your internal reference code. This is an optional step.
If no reference is indicated, PayDocker will assign a unique reference code.
7. Select a due date (1). This is when the payment will be due.
You can upload the necessary accounting documents (2) for your customer to download when they receive the Object.
8. Decide whether to send now or send later (1).
Important: You will not be able to modify or delete the Object once it has been sent out.
Review the details, then click Generate (2) to send the object to your customer.
If you have selected Send later, you will need to return to the Objects dashboard to send it out manually.
Track your objects
All successfully generated Objects and drafts will be listed on the Objects page, each with a unique ID. To view the details of an Object, click the eye icon.
You will see some statuses for your objects created. Here is what they mean:
| Status | Explanation |
| Collected | Objects sent out and have been collected. Payment has been sent. |
| Overdue | Objects sent out but have not been collected past their due date |
| To send | Objects that have been generated but not sent out yet |
| Draft | Objects that have not been generated yet |
Delete an object
Objects cannot be edited once they have been sent; you can only delete them before sending them out.
